Their love for their hometown shines through in the music video set at Kushida Shrine and Shintencho Shopping Street.

As one gets drunkKumi Iwamoto
Kumi Iwamoto, who has overcome a long hiatus, moves listeners’ hearts with a voice that has gained new depth.
In 1997, she made her first appearance on the NHK Kouhaku Uta Gassen with “Enka-zaka.” Her singing captivates with a poignant melancholy nestled within its strength, evoking the harsh winter landscapes of Japan’s northern regions.
Having once faced the crisis of losing her voice, the emotional depth infused into each word is nothing short of breathtaking.
When she sings boat songs, the aching feelings of love surge and recede like the waves.
Alongside her singing career, she is also active as a ceramic artist, and it feels as though that rich sensibility is reflected in her vocal expression as well.

Run through the nightSpitz
A Spitz song that portrays an elopement born from a forbidden love.
Knowing theirs is a relationship no one will bless, it depicts a poignant night as the couple runs off into a world for just the two of them.
Aware that they’re connected not by a destined red thread, but by something far more fragile, they still try to believe in that bond alone—an attitude that leaves you with a sense of helpless sorrow.
The track was included on the classic album Mikazuki Rock, released in September 2002, and was later used as an insert song in an anime.
It’s a work that confronts you with the purity and peril of a love you’d uphold even while turning your back on the world, prompting deep reflection.
nightMaaya Sakamoto
This is a song by Maaya Sakamoto that evokes the protagonist’s aching emotions in a room after their lover has gone home.
Even as they desperately try to grasp the lingering fragrance of those happy moments, the memories slip through their fingers and vanish.
That elusive, fleeting quality seems to symbolize the poignancy of a forbidden love, making a deep impression.
The track is included on the acclaimed 2003 December release “Shōnen Alice.” Created during a period when Maaya Sakamoto was honing her expressive power as a stage actor, her vocals here exquisitely portray delicate emotions.
If you’re troubled by a relationship you can’t tell anyone about and find yourself savoring the loneliness of a solitary night, you’ll surely resonate with the protagonist’s solitary heart.
Gaspard of the Night, M. 55: II. The GallowsMaurice Ravel
One of the pieces from Maurice Ravel’s 1908 piano suite Gaspard de la nuit, it sonically depicts the desolate scene portrayed in the poetry of Aloysius Bertrand.
A defining feature of this work is the relentless repetition of the same note—symbolizing a distant tolling bell—more than 150 times from beginning to end.
Over this monotonous resonance, eerie harmonies accumulate, drawing the listener into a meditative world dominated by the stillness of death.
For performers, maintaining strict tempo and a delicate balance of sonorities is essential; otherwise, the work’s overwhelming gloom may be compromised—making it a formidable challenge.
It is frequently programmed in competitions.
Consider listening to it when you wish to encounter the quiet beauty that lies at the depths of sorrow.
Song of JoyMONGOL800
MONGOL800 is a band from Okinawa.
While they have numerous hit songs such as “Chiisana Koi no Uta,” I’d like to recommend a slightly more niche track here: “Yorokobi no Uta.” Unlike most of their songs, this one features a reggae-style rhythm with distinctive off-beats on the 2 and 4.
The vocals are calm and somewhat languid, and since there aren’t many long sustained notes, it should be easy to sing even for those who aren’t confident in their vocal power or lung capacity.
